The Ancol Padded Nylon Harness is designed to provide helpful control when walking your dog. If your dog pulls slightly when out walking, this dog harness will offer more support to the chest, shoulders and neck instead of just the neck in the case of the traditional dog collar. This can reduce rubbing that some dogs can experience.
When fitting for the first time, undo the nylon clip, place the harness on the floor with the padded section upwards. It does not matter which way round the harness faces, there is no front or back. Encourage your dog to stand with both feet in both loops of the harness. Simply draw the harness up to your dog’s chest and clip the nylon clip together. Then adjust the harness for a comfortable fit using the four nylon slide adjusters.
The harness should be a close fit without causing any undue stress or irritation. Fit the dog lead to the “D” ring and that’s it! Your harness can be unclipped for removal and refitted without the need for further adjustment.
- Please note, it is strongly suggested you do not tether your dog while the harness is fitted.
